Template:Infobox Place Molida Island is a recurring location in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2]

Features and Overview

Phantom Hourglass

Molida Island is an Island in the Southwestern Sea in Phantom Hourglass. The southern portion of the Island is populated, whereas the northern territory is a wild grove. The Wayfarer's Words can be found scattered throughout the island, which many of the inhabitants find to be a nuisance. The Shovel can be found in a cave in the Island, which is required for finding a safe route through the foggy passage in the Northwestern Sea. Molida Island also bears the Temple of Courage, which can be found on the back of the isle. To access it, Link needs a Salvage Arm from Eddo on Cannon Island, since a Giant Eye Plant will be ready to attack Link before landing on the Island again. In addition, Link also needs the Sun Key (hidden underwater) and two Servant Spirits.

This is also the place where Link will find the Archery Game, which is unlocked after beating the Temple of Courage. In additions, three small portions of land east of the island can be accessed by blowing up a wooden crate and attracting the Cucco within with the Grappling Hook, then using the Cucco to fly there; with the help of the shovel, a Treasure Map can be unveiled from the ground.
